With ever-increasing dataset sizes, subset selection techniques are becoming increasingly important for a plethora of tasks. It is often necessary to guide the subset selection to achieve certain desiderata, which includes focusing or…
A number of scientific competitions have been organised in the last few years with the objective of discovering innovative techniques to perform typical High Energy Physics tasks, like event reconstruction, classification and new physics…
We present the Bullseye system for scholarly search. Given a collection of research papers, Bullseye: 1) identifies relevant passages using any on-the-shelf algorithm; 2) automatically detects document structure and restricts retrieved…
The mollified uniform distribution is rediscovered, which constitutes a ``soft'' version of the continuous uniform distribution. Important stochastic properties are presented and used to demonstrate potential fields of applications. For…
Before retiring, looking back to forty years of writing and publishing scientific papers, I decided to present to the scientific community a selection of my scientific works. I chose mostly articles published in prestigious journals or…
The authors prepared this booklet in order to make several useful topics from the theory of special functions, in particular the spherical harmonics and Legendre polynomials for any dimension, available to undergraduates studying physics or…
The purpose of this short article is to prove some potential estimates that naturally arise in the study of subelliptic Sobolev inequalites for functions. This will allow us to prove a local subelliptic Sobolev inequality with the optimal…
Humans spend a significant part of their lives being a part of groups. In this document we propose research directions that would make it possible to computationally form productive groups. We bring to light several issues that need to be…
This text contains over three hundred specific open questions on various topics in additive combinatorics, each placed in context by reviewing all relevant results. While the primary purpose is to provide an ample supply of problems for…
The forms of surjective multiplicative isometries from the Smirnov class on the ball and the polydisk are given.
In this paper, we define the concept of the Study-type determinant, and we present some properties of these determinants. These properties lead to some properties of the Study determinant. The properties of the Study-type determinants are…
Selective inference is a recent research topic that tries to perform valid inference after using the data to select a reasonable statistical model. We propose MAGIC, a new method for selective inference that is general, powerful and…
A number of topics in analysis are discussed, with emphasis on basic principles. There is some overlap with "Elements of linear and real analysis" (arXiv:math/0108030), with numerous changes in content and presentation since then.
This article, produced as a result of the Symposium on Statistical Inference, is an introduction to the literature on the function of expertise, judgment, and choice in the practice of statistics and scientific research. In particular,…
This technical report provides the supplementary material for a paper entitled "Information based clustering", to appear shortly in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (USA). In Section I we present in detail the iterative…
This document is due to appear as a chapter of the forthcoming Handbook of Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) edited by S. Sisson, Y. Fan, and M. Beaumont. Since the earliest work on ABC, it has been recognised that using summary…
Despite spatial econometrics is now considered a consolidated discipline, only in recent years we have experienced an increasing attention to the possibility of applying it to the field of discrete choices (e.g. Smirnov, 2010 for a recent…
The paper is devoted to studying the existence of a random attractor for stochastic porous media equations on infinite lattices under some conditions.

This is the first part of a small-scale explorative study in an effort to start assessing reproducibility issues specific to scientometrics research. This effort is motivated by the desire to generate empirical data to inform debates about…
